Default B&B PRT's

I just drove the Z home after installing the PRT's. The sound is just right. not much louder at low rpm, and roars at wot. I did not put on a X-pipe. There is some popping on deceleration.

Good choice. I've had mine on three years, and haven't regretted a second.

I had the PRT's and Bassani x-pipe on my 03 Z, I wish I could get that exact same system for my C6. I finally purchased the B&B Rte 66 as the Bullet's are just too extreme, but the PRT's were just right. Good choice. I also liked the huge 4.5" tips.

That's what I want to put on my 02', I just love that crisp sound.

Did you feel a difference in performance ? And does it drone at cruising speeds?

There is some drone when cruising, but with a divider, you hardly notice it. But I also have an x pipe. Anyway, isn't that part of the reason you bought it....cause you love the sound??

That's my favorite other than the stock Ti exhaust.
